Bittersweet
Today I heard the news that a very sweet Momy gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. This is such a blessing and I am so happy for her, yet at the same time I feel like crying. I have wanted twins since before we started having children and as I see my childbearing years coming to a close soon, I just feel so sad that I haven't had twins. I have always wanted boy/girl twins since I was a young girl, and even with 6 children born to me, I still want them.
It has never hit me this hard before though. I guess part of it could be that next month I would have given birth to another child if I hadn't miscarried. But deep in my heart I know that God has His reasons and plans for not allowing me twins. Perhaps I couldn't handle it physically or emotionally or maybe my husband. Or maybe there is a totally different reason that I will never know.
Anyway, I am very happy for Linda who just gave birth via c-section to two beautiful babies! I am praying for a quick recovery for her!

I always wanted twin girls... on Sept. 28, 1999 I gave birth to a baby girl who had died around Sept. 7th. 5 weeks later I continued to hemmorhage and had a d & C. Afterwards I was told that it was probably a twin to the baby I lost. It will be so amazing to see them in Heaven someday!
Wow, it will be special to see them in heaven. I am so sorry for your loss, miscarriage is such a painful thing to experience.
